We are in the process of installing a brand new electrical generator at our
float cabin on Powell Lake. So far we have
several solar panels working alone and on two separate battery bank systems. We also have an
AirX wind generator, but that only works when we have a storm system moving through. So our new thermoelectric generator system by
TEGPower.com that works with our wood stove seems to be a perfect solution.

The first step to get ready for the system was to run electrical cable from the front of the cabin where the wood stove is located to the back of the cabin where the electrical panel and battery bank are located. Because we don't know much about electricity, our good friend John came over to give us a hand. Fortunately the weather isn't freezing yet.

We had some heavy duty cable left over from our wind generator installation, so that was perfect for the job. We don't have a basement, but there is a crawl space under the float deck that serves a similar purpose. After running the wire underneath, John prepared the two ends for connections. He also tied the cable up under the deck flooring for additional protection from the elements.

In the cabin, we had to drill a hole in the floor. Once the installation is complete, we'll seal the hole to keep out
our resident mice. I'm sure they would love to come in where it's nice and warm. Now all we need is to get the rest of the generator components and get in installed. Stay tuned. -- Margy
